“He gets you ready. Coach Elliott, as you’ve all seen, he’s fired up,” South Carolina offensive lineman Mike Matulis said in the clip. “When you can see that in the coach, that really gets your fired up to have your coach in there behind you ready, just as fired up as you are. It gets everyone else ready. It’s a fight. It’s a 60-minute fight, and it gets us ready for it.”

Of course, that video was when Elliott was the offensive line coach and co-offensive coordinator. Who knows what to expect this week from an emotional Elliott making his head-coaching debut?
